Evangelism:
"In the interior city of Chengchow the ‘Bethel
Evangelistic Band’ had a very difficult time. The meetings had gone on without
noticeable results and the last day came. The Band knew that the hindrance must
be with the leaders who seemed quite indifferent. Desperately we prayed, and
when hope seems almost gone we were reminded that one day is with the Lord as a
thousand years.
He can do wonders in just one day! Our faith took hold on God
for the fall of Jericho at the last. And God honored our faith. During the
morning meeting one of the missionaries could not restrain his tears and
confessed most humbly that he was a great sinner and hypocrite. Then the Holy
Spirit fell on the whole congregation and all were convicted of sin and
confessed with tears of contrition. At the closing meeting there was no
opportunity for preaching. The Holy Spirit was working and people spontaneously
confessed their sins and need, or gave joyous testimonies of salvation." –

spent forty years on the backside of the desert realizing he was nobody;
finally, he spent the last forty years of his life leaning what God can do with
a nobody! … Dwight L. Moody

Prayer Quotes
Me - “Prayer is the verbal release of faith – a specific
faith for a specific purpose, all based on a specific promise from God.”
“Prayer is more
powerful than habits, heredity, and natural tendencies. It can overcome all
these. It is more powerful than the forces that hold the planets in place.
Prayer, though it comes from the heart of an unlearned child of God, can
suspend the laws of the universe, if such be God’s will, just as the sun stood
still when Joshua prayed. There is no other power on earth that the enemy of
souls hates and fears as he does prayer. We are told that ‘Satan trembles when
he sees the weakest saint upon his knees.’ “- Matilda Andross
